Abstract
We present the results from comprehensive Monte Carlo (MC) simulations of ordering kinetics in d = 2 liquid crystals (LCs). Our LC system is described by the two-component Lebwohl-Lasher model with long-ranged interactions, V(r) ∼ r(-n). We find that systems with n ≥ 2 show the same dynamical behavior as the nearest-neighbor case (n = ∞). This contradicts available theoretical predictions.Year: 2014 PMID: 24458552 DOI: 10.1140/epje/i2014-14002-9
